ABSTRACT
Background: delayed onset muscle soreness [DOMS] is Common experience and prevalent after the unusual activity and exhaustive
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the acute effect of supplementation Jdvar [Zedoary] and a single bout of exhaustive exercise on some indices of muscle damage men's handball
Methods: In this quasi-experimental study was conducted as double-blind, 12 handball players [mean age = 21.42 +/- 1.56 years, height = 186 +/- 5.85 cm, weight = 83.25 +/- 10 kg, BMI = 24.09 +/- 2.93 kg/m2] were divided randomly into two groups. Each group had a maximum Bruce protocol until exhaustion Previous [morning fasting] and immediately after the protocol were collected Blood samples from subjects. Then supplement group 3 capsules daily 500 milligram Jadvar and control group received 3 capsules daily 500 mg of maltodextrin for seven days. 24 hours after taking the last capsule subjects was performed maximum Bruce protocol to exhaustion and as the first protocol Blood samples were collected before and immediately after the protocol
Results: The results showed concentrations [CPK] serum after one week was increased in both group's supplementation and control; but concentration [LDH] after one week of supplementation reduced in both groups, but this increase and decrease were not significant in CPK and LDH
Conclusion: It seems that acute consumption Jadvar complete and exhaustive exercise not significant effect on levels of creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase in men handball
